Chapter 359

Yuanjuan felt extremely lucky.

First, by clinging to the thigh of her good friend, she managed to reach level 10 in just a span of few short days with Menghan helping her kill a lot of monsters and gaining lots of EXP points.

Then not long after, she immediately got involved in a hidden quest that required her to revise a holy book which aligned well with her field of expertise.

As expected, with her rich experience in religious studies, she easily joined the group that’s undertaking the revision quest and not only did she participate in revising the holy scripture, but she also sneakily added a lot of personal touches into it…

Ultimately, she ended up being responsible for writing the first draft and organizing the text of some of those textbooks from earth that her seniors in the group were involved in writing!

After the quest was completed, Yuanjuan was immediately granted 30,000 EXP points, just few short of reaching the jobclass change requirements and she also received ten lottery tickets!

Whilst brimming with excitement, she quickly used up all the lottery tickets at once, but the results left her feeling quite unsatisfied.

Especially since all she got from those 10 lottery tickets were two sets of rare blue-class equipment and…400 resurrection coins.

In the words of her best friend, Meng Zhihan—

Ehh, the equipment isquite decent, and the resurrection coins serve as a consolation prize. Obtaining 50 resurrection coins eight times in a row can be considered quite fortunate, you know. At least now you can die for the time being without ever worrying about lacking resurrection coins for future use.

Well, Yuanjuan thought so too…

She found solace that it wasn’t really that much of an unlucky situation—At least until she saw her friend win three epic purple-class items and an epic-class meditation book.

However, just when Yuanjuan was feeling sour about her unluckiness, suddenly a new questline appeared!

The war campaign questline: “War in the Underground”

And what attracted her to participate in this event was one of the rewards:

All players who join can receive a set of Iron-rank equipment crafted by the Dark-Dwarves each time they participate in the battle…

Every time they participate in the battle?

Every…time, you say?

In other words, if a player dies during the event and respawn afterwards to join the battle yet again, then presumably…they can get another set of equipment?

Yuanjuan asked about it, and a full set of Iron-rank equipment crafted by the dwarves, including the helmet, upper armor, lower garment, and weapon, was equivalent to four pieces out of the six in a full set.

Moreover, it can be sent over to the goddess as an offering, and they would get 1200 contribution points for doing so, but occasionally, some players are even willing to buy it for 2000 CP!

This means that this full set of equipment is at least worth 8000 contribution points!

Participating in this quest for her is just a stroke of good luck, as she has just received 400 resurrection coins!

Wonderful!

After a quick mental calculation, Yuanjuan immediately realized she was on the brink of making a huge fortune.

Currently she’s very close to advancing into level 11, so she’d only lose eleven resurrection coins if she died once.

However, with the 400 resurrection coins that she won from the lottery, she could technically die 36 times, respawn, and rejoin the battle repeatedly, potentially earning herself a staggering 36 sets of full dwarven equipment!

Dying thirty-six times will cost her 396 resurrection coins, which is the limit and going beyond that wouldn’t be worthwhile, as her level would begin to drop without any resurrection coins.

Nevertheless, for a newbie like her to acquire 36 sets of equipment…

Goodness, that’s like over 280,000 contribution points!

With that amount, she would be able to purchase two sets of legendary golden-class equipment!

Great! She has been drooling over that beautiful legendary golden-class mage robe in the exchange store, and the prospect of her finally getting it made her very excited.

As such, in preparation for the upcoming war campaign, Yuanjuan completed several daily tasks in a hurry, smoothly obtaining the last bit of EXP she needed to level up. Then, she hurriedly went to the temple to change her jobclass, finally advancing to level 11 and becoming an elven mage.

Afterwards, she didn’t learn any new skills (mainly because she didn’t have enough contribution points left), and quickly dragged her good friend so that they could trick some dwarves off their equipm—err, rather, to participate in the war underground.

This was Yuanjuan’s first time playing a virtual MMORPG, and it was also her first time participating in such a large-scale war campaigns.

Although she initially came with the sole intention of acquiring equipment for herself, it wasn’t until the war had truly began that she found herself utterly mesmerized by the incredibly realistic, breathtaking, and cinematic war scenes that’s unfolding right before her eyes within the world of Elven Kingdom.

?The astonishing number of goblins as well as the the neatly arranged yet dread-inducing undead army, whilst they fight alongside the solemn dwarven warriors, and gnome mages…

As she immersed herself in the unfolding siege, with battles raging on and fights erupting one after another around her, the brutal and chaotic battlefield left her utterly shocked.

The pungent smell of blood and the heatwave stirred up by exploding magic made Yuanjuan question if this was all still happening in the virtual world and not actually part of reality…

Well…she would definitely mistake it as such if not for the game interface floating within her field of vision as well as the invigorating BGM playing in background and the roaring commands of Brother Mu in the group chat channel.

As someone who loves war themed movies, horror films, and blood-and-gore action thrillers, Yuanjuan quickly cast aside her initial thoughts and became completely immersed in this quest…

Of course, due to her low level, she just ended up being a cannon fodder most of the time.

For instance, her first death occurred when a low-level goblin, jumped onto her and thrust a sword through her chest.

Of course, being cannon fodder was one of her intentions in the first place… it’s just that after witnessing the impressive and spectacular nature of this event, she decided to really get into it.

Hmm?

Why is my friend looking at me as if she’s questioning why a mage like me, who’s supposed to be in the rear, was jumped on by a goblin on the front lines?

Watching her good friend once again recklessly charge straight into the undead with nothing else but a single staff left Meng Zhihan utterly dumbfounded.

“Yuanjuan! You’re a mage! You’re supposed to be stationed in the backline! Goddammit, come with me…you handle the CC while I do all the attacking! Don’t rush forward like that anymore!”

Then, she used one of her druid spells to entangle the undead that’s attacking her friend while loudly adding:

“Just look at Little Salty Cat, she’s been throwing fireballs into the undead while stationed in the rear. That’s how mages are supposed to be! Why are you on the front lines anyway and not using your fireball spell?”

After interrogating Yuanjuan with a barrage of questions, her friend could only awkwardly clear her throat twice before responding:

“Little Salty Cat has already mastered the third-circle Fireball spell, and all her equipment is golden-class. Her magical prowess is so formidable that she can dispatch enemies effortlessly with just a flick of her wrist, while I haven’t even learned a first-circle spell yet…”

With that, her friend nodded towards a certain direction.

“Besides, melee combat is way more enjoyable! It feels more realistic to me. I wanna imitate the fighting style of senior Box!”

Following her gaze, Meng Zhihan saw a figure darting effortlessly among the undead like a specter.

That unique way of fighting was without a doubt, Boxlunch.

This veteran player, who had long since reached the maximum level cap, easily dodged Little Salt Cat’s fireballs while occasionally using a brilliant array of close combat skills as he destroyed skeleton soldiers one after another…

Watching him in amazement, Meng Zhihan could only think of one word:

Unstoppable.

For a brief moment, she was stunned after seeing such skillfully spectacle, then Meng Zhihan quickly regained her composure and flashed a teasing smile at Yuanjuan.

“Well, why didn’t you choose to become a hunter if you wanted to fight in close quarters like that? Why did you end up as a mage instead?”

Yuanjuan’s clicked her tongue.

“Tch, isn’t a melee mage supposed to be the most powerful jobclass?”

Meng Zhihan tilted her head.

Hmm, her friend had died several times already, but Yuanjuan could now hold out for about half a minute against the undead, even using a staff imbued with [Frostbite] properties to knock out some skeletons.

Speaking of which, this silly girl really did seem to have some talent for melee combat.

Although Meng Zhihan had been assisting her friend, the mere fact that Yuanjuan could hold out for this long among the undead was already quite a feat, especially considering she was still a level 11 novice mage.

Meng Zhihan silently watched as her best friend knocked out yet another skeleton soldier, but out of the corner of her eye, she suddenly noticed a massive fireball descending from the sky.

“Hey, Yuanjuan look ou—!”

With a resounding boom, her friend whilst wearing a brilliant smile immediately perished alongside an undead soldier amidst a cascade of magical hellfire.

From the rear of the crowd, Little Salty Cat’s apologetic voice rang out from a distance.

“Oops! Sorry! I aimed the wrong way!”

Meng Zhihan: “…”
